Upcoming webinar – Responsible Business Initiatives: Environment

6 November 2024 

In today’s world, the expectation from society, stakeholders, governments, and so on, has increased for businesses to demonstrate they operate responsibly. This means business success is not just measured by profits but also by their contributions to society and the planet. Environmental sustainability is no longer a nice to do, it is now considered a need to do today

This is being reflected in mandatory environmental measures and initiatives creating obligations for businesses of all sizes. Measures and initiatives range from reducing waste and minimising emissions to designing sustainable products and services. Businesses now have a responsibility to operate in ways that protect and restore the environment. 

Businesses should see sustainability not as a constraint but as an opportunity to innovate, gain competitive advantage and meet the demands of increasingly environmentally conscious consumers.
